Watch On Demand

This academic year, the world saw firsthand just how far primary and secondary education could stretch. K-12 institutions across the globe challenged their decades-old systems to adjust to the realities of managing learning during a pandemic.


Join us and two education leaders as we address three key themes and reformed ideas which emerged based on student-centered learning:

  • Asynchronous learning as the “buzz word” for self-directed learning
  • With students bringing ideas and questions to the classroom, teachers assumed the role of being a conceptual conductor instead of the sole contributor
  • Instruction happening successfully anywhere (synchronously and asynchronously)
